Search Tips

+ (addition symbol)

If you use '+' at the start of a word, that word will be present in the search results.eg. Harry +PotterSearch results will contain 'Potter'.

- (minus symbol)

If you use '-' at the start of a word, that word will be absent in the search results.eg. Harry -PotterSearch results will not contain 'Potter'.

AND

If you use 'AND' between 2 words, then both those words will be present in the search results.eg. Harry AND PotterSearch results will contain both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.

OR

If you use 'OR' between 2 words, then either or both of those words will be present in the search results.eg. 'Harry OR Potter'Search results will contain just 'Harry', or just 'Potter', or both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.

NOT

If you use 'NOT' before a word, that word will be absent in the search results. (This is the same as using the minus symbol).eg. 'Harry NOT Potter'Search results will not contain 'Potter'.

" " (double quotation marks)

If you use double quotation marks around words, those words will be present in that order.eg. "Harry Potter"Search results will contain 'Harry Potter', but not 'Potter Harry'.

* (asterisk)

If you use '*' in a word, it performs a wildcard search, as it signifies any number of characters. (Searches cannot start with a wildcard).eg. 'Pot*er'Search results will contain words starting with 'Pot' and ending in 'er', such as 'Potter'.

You have a strong vision for how your movie should look, but how do you find the perfect spot to shoot and how do you organize the complex logistics of such a shoot once you find that perfect location? In this comprehensive guide, industry veteran Kathy M. McCurdy provides everything you need to know to get out on location-from how to break down the script, public relations tips for successful location scouting, negotiating with property owners, permitting on public property, how to handle complaints, and even where to put the very unattractive port-a-potties. It also includes samples of all the different forms and contracts you'll need and breaks down everything from where to park the trucks to when you need police on the set. Filled with real-life examples and actual filming situations, Shoot on Location provides everything you need to know from scouting through the wrap.
